Quite a lot of changes piled up, i advise some caution upon bumping
openrc to 0.64
most notable changes are the introduction of RC_PATH, where init scripts
and configurations are looked up, the search path can now be changed
dynamically, with a build-time default that matches old behaviour
with the addition of /etc/rc and $libexec/rc to the default search path,
hopefully making it easier for distros to package init scripts
this feature is still experimental, and notably globs do not work across
entries, meaning `after *` or simialr will only apply to init scripts in
the same directory
a new dependency type is now implemented, `reexport`, when specified,
openrc will save the value of the listed variables after the service is
started, and any dependee service will have those variables as part of
their starting environment
rc-environ is shipped as a new binary for printing the stored values for
given services
this feature is also experimental for this release, but no notable bugs
are yet known
rc-update now behaves as is most expected when no runlevel is active,
falling back to 'default' (or $rc_default_runlevel), instead of 'sysinit'
the new sysv-initctl service provides a initctl wrapper for openrc-init,
aimed at helping those that switch between sysvinit and openrc-init,
e.g. for testing purposes
other less visible changes include moving a good chunk of code to use
posix_spawn, and unmounts at shutdown are now performed in parallel
